Lyrics

Smokin' Room

Here we are alone in this old smokin' room again

If your highness is your pleasure it's alright

Cause there's an extra added goodness

In my heart for you tonight

If there's any such a thing as God

He must be here tonight

Ain't sayin' I'm right

Ain't sayin' I'm wrong

Ain't sayin' there's any such a thing as short or long

It seems you been here many times before

It's too beautiful but true

And I'm glad I got the chance tonight

To share my now with you

I used to be locked in a closet and I couldn't find the key

Used to be you'd look my way but not see me

But it's happiness to know that from yourself you cannot hide

And that here's where I am and it's you that's by my side

Ain't sayin' I'm right

Ain't sayin' I'm wrong

Ain't sayin' there's any such a thing as short or long

It seems you been here many times before

It's too beautiful but true

And I'm glad I got the chance tonight

To share my now, share my now

Oh baby baby ? Oh yeah

So glad I gotcha spend some time

Spend some time glad I gotcha baby

Spend some time glad I gotcha baby

So glad I gotcha share my life

Share my life glad I gotcha baby

Share my life glad I gotcha baby
